Turning the cigarettes into basically eating dried up leaves. Which to be fair Tobacco is the dried leaves of the Tobacco plant family. Which is a subset of the Nightshades, Which makes Tobacco closely related to Tomatoes, Eggplants and Potatoes, and also a lot of plants that will kill you if ingested. Such as aptly named Deadly Nightshade.

Something to be noted is that in addition to eating cigarettes, Wojtek refused to eat his cigarettes if they were not lit. When given an unlit cigarette, he would spit it out and require that it be lit, and once lit, Wojtek would once again consume the cigarette, only this time he would be satisfied.

The story with a spy went something like this iirc: Wojtek LOVED bathing. He could spend hours in water or under shower, which at some point caused a bit of a crisis - you know, water is quite important in the desert. So it was decided, that Wojtek's shower will be limited and the showers themselves closed with a padlock. One day Wojtek wanted to sneak into the showers or at least check if they are open by chance - luckily for him, they were! The happy bear barged in and saw why they were opened: an Arab spy was inside. After causing a ruckus, the spy was captured, and as a reward Wojtek was awarded extra shower time.
